Wasn't there some talk fairly recently about trying to hit an asteroid with something hard enough to hit it off course?

I'm really going to worry that it could blow up my grave.

Gee. If there is a 1 in 40,000 chance of it hitting earth, that means there's a one in 40,000 chance of each person being killed. With 6 billion people, the chances of at least ONE of us being killed by this asteroid is pretty much certain.

What are the chances of hitting the moon?
3100 miles is less than half the diameter of the earth. That's close.
It is hard to believe they can calculate its projected path that accurately.

We're in deep doo doo. Bruce Willis will be too old to get us out of this one.

The real question is,
where will the moon be at this specific point of impact?
The moon has protected the Earth for over 2-Billion years, "YET"
nobody ever mentions the moon as it's own gravity force.
The moon causes earthquakes and all kinds of ocean occurrences
around the globe. Yet, no mention at all.
Take note Viro-Wackos.

I'll probably be hacking up a lung or worried about leakage by then.

I hope I'm around for this.
I have a feeling, though, that by then we will have some pretty powerful particle beam weapons strong enough to detonate any threatening asteroid long before it got close. Heck, we might have that kind of weaponry in space already considering we developed atomic bombs over 60 years ago in the bronze age of technology.

1 in 40,000 chance the asteroid will hit us.
1 in 4 chance that a movie will soon be released that an asteroid will hit us.
1 in 1 chance that a movie will be rushed into production if the asteroid really will hit us, or if enviroweenies can find a way to blame the resulting global warming or global cooling on Bush because of it.

A half-mile across and 3,100 miles from impact? Sounds like it would make a dandy orbital platform. I wonder how we could slow it down enough to keep it?

By 2041 Global Warming will melt the sun, so who is worried about some rock?

Dammit! I'll be almost ready to get my socialist security checks and an asteroid is going to hit!
If it really comes as close as 3,100 miles it could explode just by being very hot. It could be an event like Tunguska Siberia in 1908. If it is over a populated area, there would be unimaginable death and destruction.
